I get ’90s songs stuck in my head all the time. I could conjecture and analyze as to why, I guess, but it doesn’t really matter. I’m not a big ’80s fan like everyone else seems to be, but I think the ’90s were when I really fell in love with and started paying attention to music. Plus, the music was better than it was in the ’80s. There, I said it.
So, I think I’m going to inaugurate this as a new occasional feature here on Teh Blawg. This song, though I haven’t heard it on the radio in years, arbitrarily plopped itself down in my consciousness this morning. I remember when it came out when I was in high school, I thought it was about p0rn. That’s because I misunderstood and thought the lyrics were “they were all in love with Diane, they were doing it in Texas.” Isn’t Diane a p0rn star name? Dunno. Regardless, the lyrics are actually “…all in love with dyin’” which is pretty interesting.
In any case, it’s a weird song with a weird video, and here it is. Is that Ponch?
